744: Chapter 262 Water God Arrives_3 744: Chapter 262 Water God Arrives_3 As long as Yinghuo remains, she cannot have peace.
Sun Wukong glanced at the Water God and said, “I can help you and accept you into Huaguo Mountain.
After all, chaos has already arrived.
Even if one is immensely strong, there is a need to band together to survive.
However, I hope that after the Water God joins Huaguo Mountain, you will not be disloyal.”
The Water God showed a hint of joy, nodded slightly, and said, “Rest assured, I am only seeking peace.
Naturally, I will not be disloyal.
Besides, where could be safer than Huaguo Mountain?
Huaguo Mountain is intrinsically connected to the Heavenly Court, with formidable strength.
By joining Huaguo Mountain, even if I do not find Yinghuo, I will no longer worry.
Even if there is danger, will there not be people to assist me?”
Clearly, she had developed a psychological shadow from that battle during the Primordial era.
Given the Water God’s personality, she would not have intervened the last time the Supreme Ancestral Demon emerged.
Only later, considering it was good to have more friends, did she agree to take action.
However, the Water God later discovered that those who invited her, like the Prime Qilin, were truly not worth associating with.
Their intentions were too deep, and not a half-truth came from their mouths.
If she really were to befriend them, she would eventually be doomed by their schemes.
Thus, she directly abandoned the plan to ally with Prime Qilin and his group.
It was after that incident that she began to take Sun Wukong seriously.
Following that, she inquired a lot about Sun Wukong.
She was very satisfied with Sun Wukong’s character.
She felt that only by teaming up with someone like Sun Wukong was there any guarantee of security.
However, at that time, Sun Wukong’s strength was not strong, and she considered whether to bypass Sun Wukong and join the Ziwei Heavenly Court instead.
Just now, Sun Wukong, together with Yang Jian, had eliminated a Supreme.
This thoroughly moved the Water God.
She was well aware that she was not good at socializing.
If she could become friends with Sun Wukong or directly join Huaguo Mountain, she would no longer be completely unsupported.
And, with Sun Wukong’s reputation and moral integrity, as long as she did not betray him, Sun Wukong would definitely not abandon a friend.
The recent battle between Sun Wukong and the Black Robe Supreme had proven this point even further.
Seeing Nezha and others struggling, he stepped up alone, unwilling to let his friends get hurt.
A person like this, if befriended, would provide a considerable sense of security.
Although Nu Ba was somewhat frustrated, she could not help feeling happy.
With another Supreme-level master added to Huaguo Mountain, along with Sun Wukong, who else could threaten Huaguo Mountain?
She did not persuade the Water God to join the Heavenly Court because Nu Ba had her own selfish reasons.
She did not want Xiao Water God to join the Heavenly Court, as that would not count as Huaguo Mountain’s strength.
Although Sun Wukong had a good relationship with the Great Emperor Ziwei, she felt that some powers were better controlled in her own hands.
At that moment, Sun Wukong said, “I can agree to your joining Huaguo Mountain.
However, you do not have to stay in Huaguo Mountain all the time.
I will speak to Ziwei, and you can ascend to Heaven to serve as an official and help the Heavenly Court, without needing to stay in my Huaguo Mountain.”
The Water God was somewhat surprised.
She hadn’t expected that, although Sun Wukong had agreed for her to join Huaguo Mountain, he would also have her serve as an official in Heaven.
How good really was Sun Wukong’s relationship with the Heavenly Court, to do such a thing?
It seemed a bit too generous.
“Great Saint.”
Nu Ba was somewhat anxious.
However, Sun Wukong merely gave her a stern look and said,
“Do you know why my relationship with the Great Emperor Ziwei is so good?”
Nu Ba shook her head.
She was also puzzled.
She was certain, Sun Wukong and the Great Emperor, before this, likely had no connections.
But their current relationship was surprisingly good.
There must be some reason behind this that outsiders don’t know.
Sun Wukong smiled lightly and said calmly, “It’s because I never guard against Great Emperor Ziwei, and Ziwei does the same, never guarding against Old Sun.
We say what needs to be said, so our relationship is so good.
I can leave the Water God behind, and Ziwei won’t suspect Old Sun, or harbor any other thoughts.
But I feel that if the Water God joins the Heavenly Court, she can play her biggest role, just letting people use their capabilities.”
Nu Ba was somewhat confused.
Did Sun Wukong really trust Great Emperor Ziwei that much?
Supreme powers, all given to the Heavenly Court with a bow.
The Water God looked at Sun Wukong; she suddenly smiled and said, “I finally understand why Great Saint has so many friends.
I’ve learned a lot.
No wonder Great Emperor Ziwei, in order to support Great Saint, was ready to personally battle the Lord of Heaven Ancestor.
If it hadn’t been for Imperial Calamity Demon Venerable arriving, with two Supremes blocking the way, I believe Great Emperor Ziwei would have fought his way out.”
Sun Wukong laughed heartily, not surprised at all.
Ziwei would absolutely do such things.
However, with two Supremes blocking the door together, it was indeed the right decision for Great Emperor Ziwei not to take action.
If it were Sun Wukong, he would definitely have done the same.
After all, who would do something they knew would lead to certain death except a fool?
Nu Ba seemed thoughtful; she was beginning to understand.
Some things are not as one imagines.
The kind of relationship like the one between Sun Wukong and Great Emperor Ziwei, without a trace of impurity.
This kind is beyond the envy of others.
The two originally had no relation, yet they ended up closer than brothers, which is hard to imagine.
When Nezha and the others woke up, knowing that Water God was going to join Sun Wukong, they were all very surprised.
But hearing that Sun Wukong was placing the Water God in the Heavenly Palace, they were also somewhat surprised.
“Monkey, you really are worthy of being you, truly bold.”
Nezha exclaimed.
Handing over a Supreme with a bow, how many have such magnanimity and broad-mindedness?
You can’t find many throughout all the Three Realms.
If that’s considered, the Heavenly Court altogether has two Supremes, both sent by Sun Wukong.
The Eastern King was brought by him, and now there’s an additional Water God.
Sun Wukong smiled lightly and said, “Let’s go, your injuries are also healed.
It’s time to return to the Heavenly Court and report back.”
“But, what about the stability of the Three Realms?”
Nezha hesitated.
They were on a mission, and it hadn’t even been half the time yet; returning now seemed inappropriate.
“Who do you think would dare to cause trouble now?”
Sun Wukong asked with a smile.
Nezha was momentarily startled, then gave a bitter smile, realizing he had forgotten about that.
Who would dare to cause trouble after a Supreme was killed?
Are they really not afraid of death?
The Primordial Ancient Gods and Ancient Demons were defiant, but they had their limits and would not recklessly disregard their lives.
In fact, living in such a chaotic era, coupled with having already died once, the Primordial Ancient Gods and Ancient Demons cared even more about their own lives.
Such acts against the wind, they absolutely would not commit.
In other words, in just four to five days, Sun Wukong had brought stability to the Three Realms.
